Jetsfan80 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 .....what? METS GM: 'PROBABLY' 1 HARVEY START IN NLDS Sandy Alderson indicated today Mets ace Matt Harvey will "probably" make only one start vs. the Dodgers, saying Game 3 made the most sense: "It doesn't matter whether up 2-0 or down 0-2 or 1-1, it's a big game."

GimmeShelter Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Not sure how much stock to put in all that. Haven't plenty of teams stumbled down the stretch then flipped the switch in October? I get that they don't seem to be a mentally tough team and their offense isn't particularly that scary, but this is the playoffs. There are no easy matchups. Agree. Add in the fact that Kershaw could shut them down twice in a short series (never mind Greinke).' I love our SP's in most match-ups but want home field for this particular series.

RutgersJetFan Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 This is killing me. Probably not going to be able to adjust travel plans if needs be until the last minute because of LA slumping down the stretch and it's going to cost a fortune if it does swing the other way now. ******* Dodgers. I expect the Mets to avenge me for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 A double header might not be so good for us. I'm sure Collins was hoping to limit both Thor and Harvey, which means he'll have to go deep into the bullpen back to back. Gio and Scherzer in a row too. Oy.

32EBoozer Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Well, we didn't get HFA against LA, but, we did win 90 games like Sandy predicted. Glad we didn't get swept by Nats in a meaningless series. To be honest, we play better away from Citi... less pressure on the young guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad we didn't get swept by Nats in a meaningless series. To be honest, we play better away from Citi... less pressure on the young guys. They've been the best road team in baseball since the Cespedes trade. Been saying it since last week, after watching this team in September I changed my mind and think this is a good thing. If we can split in LA, that brings us back to NY with Harvey on the mound against Brett Anderson in game 3, then either Matz or Colon vs Kershaw or Greinke on 4 days rest at Citi. I like the looks of that a lot. If we split in LA we're winning this in 4. Bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're headed out to LA for the weekend for the games and because they have to get the east coast crowd, the Friday game is early enough to beat LA rush hour which is just hell on earth.

Hopefully they can flip the switch back on. In a 5 game series, the team with HFA has a lot of pressure to win the first 2 games. If the road team can split, then the HFA advantage is washed away. All depends how you look at it. I know some managers, in a 5 game series did not like HFA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep wishing and maybe it will be so. Remember when you said Pineda was as good as Harvey, at this stage? Good times. Why are you so sensitive? and yes Pineda's inconsistency was been troubling. Though he handled the Mets pretty easily (2-0, 0.69 ERA) but you aren't at all concerned about Harvey and the Mets long term relationship? Seems like both sides are sick of each other, at some point a break up could be foreseen. Especially if the other pitchers prove to be as good or nearly as good as Harvey.

The relationship is what it is. I have no control over that and it will turn out the way it turns out. Why wring my hands over it. The fact is, the Mets have him under control for 3 more years. What happens after that, happens. I would take him over Pineda for the next 3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
